I think anyone should be allowed to kill themselves whenever they want, for whatever reason seems sufficient to them. And I think that facilities for doing that should be provided.A person can kill himself anytime he wants to if he doesn't go blabbing about it to someone else. When that happens in America the thug cops will barge in with their guns drawn and gleefully fill the person full of hot lead. Happens all the time.
Right now, my life is pretty good, but I know eventually things will go bad. When they do, I plan on taking a trip to Switzerland if the laws do not change.
For those who would want to stop me, I say, FUCK YOU. It is my life, not yours. As far as I am concerned, you may live and suffer if it pleases you to do so, but my life is mine. Anyone who would try to stop me can fucking go to hell. Frankly, I am ready to buy a gun and shoot any motherfucker who wants to try to stop me. Hopefully, they will not die immediately from the gunshot wound, but will linger on for a week or two in agony, the motherfucking sons of bitches.
The main problem with suicide is that insurance companies don't want to make the payout. So if a person doesn't have an insurance policy he can cut his own throat in peace.
If a person is terminally ill and has an insurance policy he can usually cash it out at half value and then cut his own throat.
If a person really wanted to die all he has to do is walk down the street with a visible wad of cash. When a mugger shows up to take it then he can put up a fight and the mugger will kill him. It's suicide without being obvious.
A lot of old women will usually get together in a car and the driver will run into a bridge, killing all of them. That's when they don't want to die alone. The cops write it off as an accident.
Once you know you're a goner if you don't pull the plug on yourself don't expect other people to do it for you.
But some people want the full experience of hanging on to the bitter end and suffering all of the pain and anxiety that goes with it. When it's my time I won't mind dying, I just don't want it to take all day.
